The continuous-time random walk of Montroll and Weiss has a complete separation of time (how long a walker will remain at a site) and space (how far a walker will jump when it leaves a site). The time part is completely described by a pausing time distribution(t). This paper relates the asymptotic time behavior of the probability of being at sitel at timet to the asymptotic behavior of(t). Two classes of behavior are discussed in detail. The first is the familiar Gaussian diffusion packet which occurs, in general, when at least the first two moments of(t) exist; the other occurs when(t) falls off so slowly that all of its moments are infinite. Other types of possible behavior are mentioned. The relationship of this work to solutions of a generalized master equation and to transient photocurrents in certain amorphous semiconductors and organic materials is discussed.
